An efficient,
affordable UCITS solution for managers who value their freedom and independence

The Independent UCITS Platform is a fund hosting infrastructure created to address the needs of specialist managers/entrepreneurs who wish to retain flexibility, freedom and independence when they establish their own UCITS funds. We provide access to platforms in both Luxembourg and Ireland.

The Platform approach is designed to make it quick, easy and cost effective to set up a UCITS fund, without undergoing the time and expense of establishing and maintaining a new umbrella vehicle. The structure is particularly suitable for managers wishing to re-engineer an existing offshore fund or to replicate an offshore strategy in a UCITS fund.

“The growth in the size of the fund in the first three months is a function of a solid and knowledgeable group of investors understanding the asset class.

Launching a UCITS fund has allowed Airlie to reach out to extend its investor base throughout Europe.

For an independent U.S.-based manager, using a platform approach has made this opportunity not only possible, but also very straightforward.”
